antique hunting

Last summer Joe and I would go to the Aberfoyle Antique Market almost every weekend. It was so much fun to just walk around and look at all of the neat stuff for sale. This summer has been busy and we just went to the market for the first time since it opened for the season. Being an apartment-dweller is hard because most of the things I fall in love with are large (too large for our too small apartment).

A new tradition this year will be a mandatory stop at the canteen for grilled cheese (with processed cheese! yes!) and onion rings. 

And here's what I bought:
Vintage Crown mason jars with glass lids $2 each
A new honey tin to add to my collection (the yellow one on the bottom) $3
A book on cacti and succulents (mainly for the pictures that I'm planning on framing) $2

  2. Thank you for introducing this market to us. I love it. It was almost torture that we don't have enough room and had to leave a ton of good stuff. I can't wait to go again!
